Hypnotize yourself to be a pony, links included

If by reversion phase you mean mentally turning back to a human, that's what I mean to do

No, "phrase".  You say, "revert to normal", and then you return to normal.

Ok. I'll just change that when I make the list.

Don't expect to get it on your first try, but don't give up.

When I do this and turn out succesful, I'm probably gonna make so many crazy theories (they don't call me ChangelingPhilososhpy for nothing!)

Don't start with theories, though: start with hypotheses.

Bah, foiled again

 

I'm already thinking about how the human mind can be meddled so easily. And also, how we can get so attached, that morphing into this creature doesn't seem like that big of a deal, we're so familiar we feel almost part of it.

And the fact that even if it fails, the fact that you felt you had hooves seemed fine, and relaxing. (Judging by all the reviews of being relaxed)

That's not really a theory or hypothesis, it's just contemplation.  I already wrote a small soliloquy about the same subject earlier in the thread:

 

The human mind is a queer thing: easily deceived, easily changed.  In under 20 minutes, one can be convinced they are a different person -- a different species.  Is this a weakness of the psyche, or a strength?  To be so pliable, and yet so fragile.

And now there's tin foil everywhere! Fine. You win.

Er, what do you mean by that?

[ChangelingPhilosophy 45]

I was foiled again again

[Bunnyhop123 194]

I was foiled again again

And what exactly foiled you?

[ChangelingPhilosophy 45]

The fact that you said it was a contemplation

Now thinking, I'm gonna wait till after Bronycon to try this. I'm just taking a precaution in case I get hoof lock.

I think I'm getting closer; I felt a twinge when he said I was supposed to, and for a bit, it was like I had a bud where my tail should be.

Neat! That seems pretty cool. Gonna go ahead and chat I the morning though, it's late.

Oh your still here? Nevermind then! I go to bed at 12:30 anyway.

I never sleep (except when I do).

 

On a side note, I appear to be acting more spontaneously silly.  Coincidence, or actual effects, considering I tried the Pinkie Pie file?

[ChangelingPhilosophy 45]

I don't know, it could be either. Like, when you think your sick, and then you feel really bad because you think you really are, but you aren't. But you could be sick too. Or like Schrödinger's cat.

It's medically known as the placebo effect: when you feel something because you think you will.

Who knew I would learn all this from ponies?

You're learning all this from a future biologist.

Wait, does this mean that the entire hypnosis could just be a placebo effect?

In a manner.  You're never actually a pony: you think you're a pony.  Hypnosis works with the mind.
